Remington's Nick-names...

*Reme -- derived from your name, shortened.

*Duckie -- because in one of the first ultrasound pictures we had of you in utero, you resembeled a little duck with plumage atop the head. Your face was turned towards what looked like a duck's preening feathers at tail's end.

*Son-shine -- because Daddy sings a special song for you, all about you being his Son.

*Little Him -- this moniker came about because someone was talking to you about your Dad. They said: "we know you love Him (meaning Daddy)." After that, I started calling you "Little Him."

*Squeaker -- from Aunt Joyce because you squeaked at her every time she picked you up.

*Little Man -- from Daddy whenever he sings to you or says loving things to you.

*Cuddle Bug -- because you snuggle with Mommie whenever she burps you or whenever you are sleeping in her arms.

*Mommie's Tigger -- because as you are learning to walk and crawl you either get on your hands and knees and rock back and forth in a bouncing motion OR stand up and bounce, bounce, bounce. Also, you enjoy being bounced on the bed, or in your Exer-saucer. Sometimes you will stand on the couch, holding on to the back of the couch, me or Daddy and bounce away!

*Speed Racer -- because as you are crawling you move lightening fast!!!!!

*Mister -- Daddy started calling you "Mister" after you turned one year of age because you are maturing so fast. It is a nick-name that came about quite by accident...Daddy was trying to spit out Little Man, but somehow the words Mister Man came out and then got shortened to 'Mister.'

*Lil' Tornado -- because you are a whirlwind! You are interested in EVERYTHING and get into EVERYTHING...and as my adventurer...I think it is wonderful!

*Haaaaamm Sanwich -- because you have an amazing sense of humor!!! This nick-name started when you were 18 months old. You have the funnest personality!

~~Pictures Top to Bottom: 2011 Easter Basket, "Adorable Lil' Devil."

Dear Remington, this Easter was technically your second Easter and we were sooo excited to get the house set up for the Easter Bunny's visit. Your first Easter came when you were just a little over a month old and the Easter Bunny had not been alerted to your arrival...so, Uncle Jeff and Aunt Cheryl brought you an Easter basket (with all sorts of things a one month old needs)that they made very lovingly.

This year, since you were only one, the EB brought a small basket filled with tiny M&M candies, a sippy cup, a football, and a football stand. You really loved taking everything out of the basket and then replacing all items directly back in. Daddy didn't think you should have chocolate quite yet, but Mommie was a naughty and gave you some M&M's, thus causing you to become a choclaholic (so yes, you may blame your sweet tooth on me. Ha-ha).

Besides the chocolate, you particularly liked the Easter egg hunt, and the yummy breakfast Mommie prepared (it was an egg, sausage, cheese, and bell pepper medly made like a breakfast casserole).

I have always liked Easter and hope that I can make it as fun and magical for you as my Mom did for me. I look forward to building many memories and traditions with you.

Love Forever and X Infinity,

Mommie.
